Increase your device's GPS accuracy — anywhere

If you enjoy using your smartphone, tablet, or laptop on the go, you're probably into cool GPS-enabled apps, like navigation, geocaching, aviation, golfing, and more. Or perhaps you just like using your device to find a bite to eat nearby or to let your friends on social media know where you are. But sometimes your device's GPS capabilities leave a lot to be desired — especially if you've got a Wi-Fi® only tablet or iPod touch®, where they're nonexistent — and that's where Dual's XGPS150A universal GPS receiver can really save the day.

The compact XGPS150A receiver communicates GPS information to your portable device using Bluetooth. It works with a large variety of portables, including all iOS devices with Bluetooth: iPhone® 3G and newer; all iPad® models; and iPod touches 2nd generation and newer; plus many other smartphones and tablets. It features a built-in rechargeable battery to stay energized. Once you've done an initial setup with your device, this little Dual receiver pairs up automatically so you can get going without any annoying delays.

The XGPS150A receiver goes nearly anywhere with the included non-slip pad.

Get your app on

Dual offers its own free Bluetooth GPS utility app for using the XGPS150A — download the app to your device and you'll be able to check the receiver's status, including the number of satellites the receiver is picking up, the signal strength of each satellite, battery level, and device connection confirmation. The receiver includes a non-skid pad for use in the car, plane, train, or boat, plus an adjustable two-piece strap for your bag that doubles as an armband so you can take the receiver with you on the go. Maximum range is 33 feet, giving you plenty of flexibility for placement.

Once you're up and running, you can use hundreds of compatible GPS- and location-based apps on your device with confidence, as the Dual receiver dramatically improves GPS accuracy. If you're using a Wi-Fi-only tablet or laptop, this receiver supplies GPS info so you can use navigation apps in your car without having to use 3G or 4G signals. You'll find new and exciting uses for your apps, including those mentioned above as well as marine, running, hiking, cycling, and more. A list of fully tested compatible apps can be found at Dual's website.

Ready to roam

The receiver locates your position anywhere around the world in under 30 seconds when properly placed, and updates position at least once per second. Since you're not using your device's built-in GPS receiver, you'll extend battery life on your device when it's connected to the XGPS150A. The Dual's battery lasts up to 8.5 hours on a full charge, and you can conveniently power up with the included USB cable or 12-volt adapter. The receiver's also built to withstand splashing, extreme temperatures, rapid speeds, and high altitudes.

Features

Overview: The Dual XGPS150A is an add-on GPS receiver
which connects to various portable devices via Bluetooth. The XGPS150A searches
for GPS satellite signals to determine your location anywhere in the world (all
over the globe). It
then can transmit your location information to various kinds of devices with
Bluetooth connectivity and support for Bluetooth Serial Port Profile (SPP).
The transmitted GPS signal can be used by many applications on your Bluetooth-enabled
device. Supported devices include:

Note: There is a mode switch (next to the mini-USB connector) on
the XGPS150A which must be set based on what type of device you are
using (see page 5 of manual for settings).

Improved GPS Accuracy w/ Less Battery Drain: Even though your Apple
iOS, Android or Blackberry device may already have built-in GPS, the Dual
portable GPS receiver will give you improved GPS accuracy. Also, using the
add-on XGPS150A GPS receiver, dramatically reduces the battery drain on your
smartphone or tablet; that means more talking/texting for you and less time
being connected to a power outlet.

Bluetooth Technology: The XGPS150A features built-in Bluetooth (version 2.1+EDR)
with support for Bluetooth Serial Port Profile (SPP). The XGPS150A transmits its
GPS signal to your compatible Bluetooth-enabled device wirelessly. Bluetooth
has a range of up to 33' (battery level drops can cause decrease in range and
performance).

Pairing: Pairing is the initial process of connecting your Bluetooth
device with the XGPS150A to allow them to communicate with one another. You will
need to go through this pairing process the first time you use the XGPS150A with
your Bluetooth-enabled device. Once the XGPS150A is paired your device, the two
devices will remember their connection with one another. When powered on, the
XGPS150A will automatically try to reconnect to the last device it was paired
with. Once the XGPS150A is paired with your Bluetooth-enabled device, you can
immediately begin using apps that utilize GPS information.

Your current location, or an indication that the device is still waiting
for satellite information.

Whether or not the GPS receiver is actively connected to the iPod
touch/iPhone/iPad.

LED Indicators: The Dual XGPS150A features 3 LED indicators.

Low Battery: This light will flash red when the batter level is

normally off while the XGPS150A is running.

Bluetooth Status: This blue light will indicates whether the
XPGS150A is searching for a device to connect to, negotiating a connection
with a device, or has successfully paired to a device. A slow flash
(approximately once per second) indicates the XGPS150A is available to
connect to another device. A quick flash (approximately 5x per second)
briefly happens when the XGPS150A is pairing with another device. A solid
glow indicates that the XGPS150A has successfully paired and is
communicating with another device.

GPS Status: The GPS indicator will flash while the XGPS150A is
searching for satellite signals. The light will change to a steady green
when your location is successfully determined. When paired with an iPod
touch, iPhone, or iPad; the GPS status light will not illuminate until an
app is actively requesting GPS information.

Rechargeable Battery: The Dual XGPS150A features a built-in
rechargeable battery which can last up to 8.5 hours. The rechargeable battery
can be charged via the mini-USB connector and the supplied 62" mini-USB to USB
cable. Simply plug the included cable into the XGPS150A and a free USB port on
your computer, or plug the cable into the supplied 12V power adapter an insert
it into your vehicle's 12-volt power port. It takes approximately 2.5 hours to
